Is multiplayer worth it?

[Unaimed Player]

I am thinking about buying this game, but the main deciding factor is the multiplayer for me.
I have watched a recent review of the game and the reviewer said that the multiplayer was laggy. This review was on Switch though. I couldn't find a recent one on pc.

• Is the multiplayer laggy on pc, too?
  
• How good is the net-code, hit-reg etc in general?
  
• Do high ping players have an advantage over low ping players (which I hope is not the case)?
  
• Does this game have dedicated servers or is this p2p?
  
• Are there community servers or just official servers?
  
• Are there any other problems with multiplayer in your opinion?
  
• Can we create our own robots in multiplayer?
  
• Are there going to be more modes added to multiplayer?

It's unfortunately extremely laggy... have yet to play a smooth multiplayer game.

If you have high expectations for the multiplayer mode, I wouldn't expect much. I'm assuming the only gamemodes you have interest in is the PvP aspect of multiplayer since you asked about ping advantage.

In terms of PvP: The hit-reg doesn't feel good. If you can't stand someone killing you from far away, or if you clearly miss your attack but it someone kills someone else a second later, this might not be the game for you. High ping players usually don't have an advantage, but you'll struggle to hit each other. There's only official servers, no community servers. There's a lot of customization for multiplayer. You can pick your skins, color of your skin, voice, and emotes for multiplayer. A lot of them are unlocked through achievements.

There is only 2 PvP gamemodes, Private duels which is for friends only, and LBS which is a battle royale mode. Would there be more added? Who knows, there's not a public roadmap for the future of this game, all of it is just speculation.

I don't have answers for all your questions since I'm not too involved in the multiplayer aspect of this game, but hopefully this is enough to fill you in.

Thank you to both of you.
I think I am going to wait and see how the state of the servers and the game in general is going to evolve.
